Abstract
This chapter compares and evaluates how the global maritime security regimes for the confrontation of piracy, port and vessel security, and maritime terrorism are being accommodated by the legal systems in Korea, China and Japan, as well as how the legal groundwork for the implementation of such maritime security regimes is being laid out. Korea, China and Japan, three northeast Asian nations that are wholly dependent on sea lanes of communication for import-export commodities and energy transport, have been actively involved in endeavoring to secure the safety of the sea lanes of communication from pirates. Maritime terrorism is a transnational crime, whose preparation; implementation and impact go beyond the boundaries of a state. Thus, complex international legal issues are at play in the investigation of the crime of terrorism and the punishment thereof. Keywords:China; Japan; Korea; maritime security; maritime terrorism; northeast Asian nation; piracy; port security
